    Question

    If a man rows at the rate of 14 kmph in still

    water and his rate against the current is 5 kmph, then the man’s rate along the current is:
    A 23 kmph Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 31 kmph Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 27 kmph Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 36 kmph Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let man’s speed downstream be x kmph. Man’s rate in still water = (x + 5) * ½ kmph 14 = (x + 5) * ½ kmph 28 = (x + 5) kmph x = 28 – 5 = 23 kmph
